A/N Okay, ready for the next chapter! I so happy! I just finished the outline for Princess Chronicles part 3! Yes! There's going to be a part 3! But I'm now at a crossroads between topics for part 4. Hmm, I think about that later.
Disclaimer: I want Inuyasha, but no one will give it to me!
To rsd: Hmm, what makes you think that? *looks innocent*
To P.L.S.: Oh, yeah. Hum, You're right. But I thought those were moths. Oh, well. Don't give up hope, I still have two crossovers to go after this one!
Chapter 22: Possessions
Rachel looked around her. "Alright! A stream! I'm so thirsty, I think I could make this stream go dry!" She pracitily ran to the stream and took deep drinks from it.
Little did she know, she was being watched.
********************************************************************************
Kagura watched the black-haired girl drink from the stream. "So this is the girl. She doesn't look so tough, why did Arius want our help?"
Almost on que, Kagura saw movement in the woods behind the raven-haired girl, who seemed not to notice. 'Now this will be good.' She thought as she rose higher into the air to get a better view.
********************************************************************************
Rachel was busily enjoying her drink, when she heard a noise behind her. Almost immediatly, her instincts kicked in. She sat still, afraid to even breathe. 'Oh, great, an evil aura behind me. Perfect.'
Then the noise stopped. But the aura was still there. Waiting. 'Maybe the thing behind me is afraid of me. No, then the aura would retreat. What is it doing?'
Then, the aura seemed to burst forward, Rachel glanced at the water to see a shadow come her direction, pushing her legs hard, she jumped clear, missing her attacker by inches. Rachel landed on her feet and stood looking at the source of the attack.
"A giant cat!" Rachel gasped at the black cat demon. It looked like a panther, the only thing that was different was the demon's eyes glowed a dark red.
The demon growled and began to walk towards her, no doubt thinking about its dinner. It leaped again, Rachel watched as the demon was in the air above her.
Quickly she pulled out a scroll and waited till the demon was almost upon her.
"EVIL SPIRIT BEGONE!!!" The ward attached itself to the demon's forehead and Rachel jumped backwards as the demon hit the ground with a dull thump.
Rachel went up to the demon, who didn't move. "Thank goodness." She looked at the demon. "As long as that ward stays in place, he will remain frozen. I really don't want to kill him, it didn't do anything but what its been raised to do."
With a last look at the demon, she turned and walked away, following the stream. 'Maybe this will lead me to a village.' She thought hopfully.
********************************************************************************
Kagura looked at the retreating girl in awe. 'Thats why that guy wanted our help. She is very powerful.'
She silently followed after the girl.
********************************************************************************
Inuyasha and the gang continued their search for the girl. "Hey! look down there!" Shippou chirped from Sango's shoulder.
Inuyasha looked to where the fox-demon pointed. "It looks like someone burned a fire down there."
The gang went over to the site. Miroku stepped a bit closer and placed his hand over the burned wood. "This miko must have been here. This was a scared fire, probably used for mediation."
"But only really powerful Mikos can read fire, right Miroku?" Sango asked. Miroku nodded.
Inuyasha looked at the firesite. "This proves that the girl isn't Kikyo. She never learned to do fire-readings."
Kagome looked at him. "Why? She has to be powerful enough."
Inuyasha opened his mouth to answer, when Kouga answered for him.
"Kikyo had to protect the shikon no tama, and fire-readings require a long mediation, usually hours, but sometimes days, and during the mediation peroid, the mediator is out of touch with the physical world. So, if a demon attacked while Kikyo was mediating, the jewel could be taken and she wouldn't know about it."
Inuyasha looked at him angerly. "WHO SAID YOU COULD TALK FOR ME?!"
Kouga glared back. "WHATS THE MATTER DOG-TURD? MY WOMAN ASKED A QUESTION, AND I ANSWERED HER! LIKE I WAS SUPPOSED TO!"
Inuyasha's face turned red from anger. "SHE AIN'T YOUR WOMAN!!!"
Kouga glared back. "THEN WHOSE IS SHE?!"
Behind them, a light breeze blew. Miroku looked east, a knowing expression on his face. "I feel that a strong spell has just been cast. Hey, you two! I think I have just found the girl's location, no quit agruing and come on!"
Inuyasha glared at Kouga who glared back as Kagome climbed to her usual spot on Inuyasha's back. 'She's mine.' He thought as the group ran towards the spot Miroku indicated.
********************************************************************************
Arius looked at the group with interest. 'Maybe I should change my strategy.'
He watched as the group left, as soon as they were gone, Arius went to find Naraku.
Ends Chapter 22
A/N Okay, if you can't tell, I'm a HUGE Kagome/Inuyasha fan.
More info to part 3 is coming later!
